This small (4-5mm) Tachinidae from wall of my countryhouse in Moscow region. I collected several flies (25 & 30 apr). All of them distictly less than 3 Lypha dubia (all collected inside Moscow, in park). I have now. All with more shiny body and some irridiscent wing, basal part of R4+5 - black, not yellow. All other - almost similar. Looks like another species of same genus. In my key - only L. dubia, but in European check lists there is also Lypha
ruficauda. Or it is inside individual variability of L. dubia?
